Starbucks Goes Steel for the Holidays

If you're ready to show off your coffee prowess, this is the stocking stuffer for you for Christmas 2012.

Via Gilt.com, Starbucks worshipers can purchase this extremely limited edition steel card for $450 which gives you Gold Member status as well as $400 in credit redeemable at your favorite local Starbucks shop.  Only 5,000 are going to be made (it is, after all, made of steel!) and those of us (guilty!) who are Starbucks Members already have gotten our email invitations to have first dibs on purchasing.  The rest of the world will wait until Friday morning to line up to purchase the collectible card.

If you're not ready to hand over the $450 your shiny new coffee card, why not choose a more affordable solution to getting your Starbucks fix?  Fill your break room with Starbucks for the best office coffee without the hefty price tag.
